Glamour and Glitter

Costume Glitter

Costume National had some of the best interpretations of the LGD (Little Glitter Dress).  The fabric is indescribable - it could be beaded, lamé, lurex encrusted - hard to say!

  

Sexy Hair

Sexy People Blog just convinced me that this hairstyle is making a comeback.  Combine 80s fashion revival with the abundance of hair extensions these days and some modern version of this hairstyle is bound to be appearing in an important editorial or fashion show near you.

 

Spider Silk

Thanks to Teddy for the heads up on this amazing, rare fabric woven from spider silk.  It was produced in Madagascar with the filaments of one million Golden Orb Spiders.  The golden colour is natural.

Read this Wired article for more fascinating details.

Glitter Shoes

Vogue.fr has had a make-over!  The site is now slightly easier to navigate with more web content.  They have done a wrap up on Glitter Shoes for the season including Christian Louboutin, Balmain, and Brian Atwood.  We got kinda crazy for these Louboutins...  and oh yeah they're 1895 euros.

Fish Patterns

Animal prints will never, ever go away.  As an alternative to the die-hard leopard print, we would like to propose some new animal prints found under the sea.  These fish patterns look animal but are fresh, unidentifiable, and most importantly original.

 

 

 

Black and Nude Prints

After a strong showing of Black & White Prints for Resort, Spring 2010 had a junk-load of similar feeling prints, yet softened by replacing White with Beige, Grey, or Nude.  This subtle colour change had an incredible modern feel, and it's crazy how many collections were feeling it.  Black and soft neutrals dominated the runways, so putting them together in print was just a logical step.

Givenchy

Wunderkind

Aquascutum

Chanel

Spring 2010: Giambattista Valli

This look just makes us happy.  Definitely Lily-approved.

Dino Glitter

Glitter Lovers Rejoice!  Yet another season rides the sequin, crystal, lamé covered train of glamour.  We are back to celebrate with one of the last shows of fashion month: Giles.  Whether you like your dinosaurs in a metallic patchwork or snugly bag, look no further...
